Default Help with parking lights

Hello...my driverside parking lights do not turn on (front and rear). I do not believe its the bulb since both front and rear are out, I checked all the fuses and they seem to be okay, there is no aftermarket stereo or alarm on the car, and the parking light wires (3 total...2 black and 1 red) on the headlight seems to look normal going back to the ground near the radiator support. The car had been in an accident and there was some overspray on the ground wires.

I just wanted to check in to see if anyone had sone suggestions on things that I could check...

Thanks for the help!

Do you have fender liners still? Wide front tires/wheels?

i do have a fender liner on the driver side, but it is trimmed about an inch or two due to rolled fenders...and I have 17x10 square setup on the car, I didn't see any breaks in the wiring to the parking lights on the headlight, and I'm getting power to the parking lights on both the driver and passenger side. I checked the bulb and the socket that the bulb sits in on the driver side, the socket has burn marks/charring, but I didn't see any corrosion on the metal connectors, and I would assume I'd probably lose another bulb pretty soon if I replace just the bulb...I was going to go to the dealership today to see if I could replace the socket that the bulb sits in.

I got a new set of headlights, my previous headlights had broken tabs so maybe the issue is vibration or moisture impacting the socket?
